Now again he is said to be involved with another diva, Urvashi Rautela. Though both have denied the reports the story has been getting more spicier day by day. Recently the actress even lashed out at media but Pandya is yet to respond.

2) KL Rahul – Athiya Shetty

There is a reason why Indian team management backs KL Rahul and it is his batting purity that charms the cricketing fraternity.

Then the IPL changed his hitting dynamics and now the right-hander can play shots all around the park.

Rahul has got all the ingredients to become one of the leading batsmen in the international circuit. The only thing he needs to work on is his consistency as it has cost him a regular place in the playing XI. Earlier in the year, he got into trouble when he made erratic statements in one of the talk shows. There also his inconsistency resulted in a suspension.

His change in personality has made him a poster boy and now he is a closely followed Indian cricketer. He has been spotted with many Bollywood starlets. Notably, he was associated with actress, Nidhi Agarwal but later it was clarified that they were just friends. Now, these days there have been rumors that he is dating Athiya Shetty, daughter of actor Suniel Shetty. It has also been learned that they started seeing each other at the end of last year.
